These young, energetic rockers haven’t slowed down since they released their sophomore EP Disclosure in April 2014. They are best known for their intensity on stage, as well as their personality off the stage. PopWrapped states, “They’re all attitude all of the time and they do it in an unapologetic fashion.”
Rick Zeiler, CEO of COLDCOCK American Herbal Whiskey states, “City Of The Weak along with about 200 other participating bands poured their heart and soul into our inaugural Battle of the Bands competition and we’re incredibly grateful. I’m only sorry we couldn’t award 200 grand prize packages because every single bit of promotion the bands put out for COLDCOCK Whiskey means the world to us. Our valued friends in the music industry created what is an opportunity of a lifetime for City of the Weak and this is only the beginning of what COLDCOCK will do for up and coming artists who work their asses off to achieve their dreams. THANK YOU to our judges and participating bands!”
Stef of City of the Weak adds, “We are extremely grateful for everything COLDCOCK Whiskey has done for us. City of the Weak can’t wait to get out there and show everybody what we are capable of! Thank you to all of our fans who took their shot with us this summer- we’ll see you on t
he road very soon!”
